I never told a victim story about my imprisonment. Instead, I told a transformation story - about how prison changed my outlook, about how I saw that communication, truth, and trust are at the heart of power.
A feel-good style can be a symptom of unawareness or lack of caring.
You have one big mythology in your favor: Everyone believes that you Europeans are impeccable. But I know you are jerks.
Our worst comes out when we behave like robots or professionals.
You have to be able to risk your identity for a bigger future than the present you are living.

Great work is done by people who are not afraid to be great.
I made my own assessment of my life, and I began to live it. That was freedom.
When I left prison, I had to figure out how to embrace my past.
Hope is the raw material of losers.
Our best comes out when we have honest discussions.
